Happy Accident Quilts

This is the sample for my "Happy Accident" class. I will draw "prompts" out of a hat, and the students will have to incorporate them into their quilts. I used that process to make this little quilt. My prompts were:

add words (dragonfly stamp--the text spells "dragonfly")

add embroidery (free-form hand cross stitches)

add dots or doodles (the squares at the bottom)

add texture (the quilting)

Normally I would add at least one more for the challenge, but today is the deadline for submitting the class info so it is as done as it is going to get for a while!
